It's not punk punk

Honeyroar · 13/01/2021 22:46

Oh yeah. I’m so uncool I’d forgotten there ever was such a ladder (does it go to a shelf?)

Needtoknow that could be a lyric in itself! Think I might have something outstanding too but I can’t be arsed going to check!

Lol there's just a little platform I sleep on. It's not ideal.

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 13/01/2021 22:53

Night night needtoknow

Honeyroar · 13/01/2021 22:54

Night night.😴

FlouncingBabooshka · 13/01/2021 22:57

I have no idea what’s going on.

Needtoknow has finally found knickers (wonder how long she’s been going commando..?)

Something about a ladder...

Have I had too much wine again..?

Honeyroar · 13/01/2021 22:58

Nope you’ve probably not had enough!😁

FlouncingBabooshka · 13/01/2021 23:12

You’re probably right Honey. A small nightcap maybe...

This one is still outstanding from the last time I posted so I’ve added more lyrics

You cry justify,
Deep beneath the feelings lie.
Photo looking old,
Memory makes the day feel cold.
They've gone sing your song,
Walk the flow; ah too slow.
Post boom second doom,
Stealing cake to eat the moon

Now this mountain, I must climb
Feels like the world upon my shoulders
But through the clouds, I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

Is that I want to know what love is Coffee ? I think it's by Foreigner

Honeyroar · 14/01/2021 15:32

Yes I think it is too.

Fleamaker123 · 14/01/2021 15:41

I don't know, I don't care
'cause I'm living without you baby
Even when I know what's going on

To be fair, coffee handed her a pair a few pages ago. But I think needtoknow has been using them as a sleeping bag. They were big enough! And needtoknow is determined to keep her top slot on the coolness ladder

Does anyone else think/suspect (or is it just me) that our FlouncingB is just a raging alcoholic who occasionally sobers up enough to stumble bleary-eyed onto the thread, ask what's going on, guess a kate bush lyric if there's one handy before falling back into a drunken stupor? I think there is no ill DH. No issue with her house. Just a very, very large bottle of gin

@NeedToKnow101

Wanna join in a chorus, of the Amerasian blues? When it's Christmas out in Ho Chi Minh city Kiddie say papa papa papa papa papa-san take me home See me got photo, photo, photograph of you 80s
Stupid, stupid me! This is the clash
ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 14/01/2021 17:26

Definitely punky, I'd say

Fleamaker123 · 14/01/2021 17:27

🤣 I think there's a few of us who stumble bleary eyed onto this thread! It's always very lively in the evenings!

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 14/01/2021 17:49

There's definitely a whiff of sherry around the honey monster.

And I think "coffee" might be an autocorrect for "whisky"

Fleamaker123 · 14/01/2021 17:59

😂

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 14/01/2021 18:15

and I think flea smokes pot

And I'm sure shiny's on crack.

Actually, I'm the only clean-living one on here 👼

NeedToKnow101 · 14/01/2021 18:22

I'm just high on life.

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 14/01/2021 18:32

High on the ladder needtoknow!

It's only libel if it's not true, shiny

shinynewapple2021 · 14/01/2021 19:24
